Chapter 40: The Mysterious Pearl

  The auctioneer continued, but none of them were things Ye Tianfan needed or wanted, so he could only watch the bidding with boredom.

  Yeh Tianfan also discovered that Wang Qi had bid on several items, but they were not very valuable. The most expensive item he won was only a few tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones, clearly indicating that the Wang family did not provide him with many spirit stones.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, the final item of this auction is about to be revealed. Please wait with bated breath." With that, Blue Feather removed the handkerchief, revealing a miniature armor-shaped object underneath.

  "Ah! This is a defensive armor, but I don't know if it's low-grade or mid-grade. If it's mid-grade, that would be incredible! This treasure can rival high-grade attack spirit artifacts!" As soon as they saw this treasure, people began to discuss and speculate.

  "Hehe, it seems everyone understands now. Not bad, this is the finale item of this auction, a mid-grade defensive spiritual artifact. Next, I'll introduce to everyone the main functions of this artifact." Lan Yu said excitedly, clearly satisfied with everyone's shocked expressions.

  "Firstly, this spiritual artifact can greatly enhance one's defensive capabilities. Those below the Separation Realm cannot break through it, and even those a realm higher would need to expend immense effort to do so. Secondly, this artifact also comes with a Wind Movement Technique that can increase a cultivator's speed by 10% to 20%, depending on their cultivation realm. Lastly, this artifact will autonomously gather spiritual energy to form an auxiliary spell, which can be triggered when attacked, and its attack power is comparable to that of the Separation Realm." Blue Feather explained in detail.

  The function introduction is over, Blue Feather said again: "This spiritual instrument as the final item, the starting price is 500,000 low-grade spirit stones, each increase in price must not be less than 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, and there is no upper limit. You can bid whatever high spirit stone you want to buy, okay, now the auction begins."

  "It's actually a mid-grade defensive spirit artifact, if I can get it, my strength will at least increase by half, and even if someone is one realm higher than me, I'll be able to entangle with them for a while. I'll offer 6 million spirit stones!" Just as Blue Feather finished introducing the benefits of this spirit artifact, a Yuan Ying period cultivator immediately spoke up, clearly very interested in such a mid-grade spirit artifact.

  "I'll offer 700,000 spirit stones and add a mid-grade spiritual artifact. I suggest everyone else give up now." A cultivator who was clearly stronger than the Qin family's previous representative said.

  "Hmph, others may fear the Meng family, but I don't. My Zhang family will offer 800,000 spirit stones and add a mid-grade attack spirit tool on top of that. I hope everyone can give me some face. I know you all want this spirit tool, but it's very important to my Zhang family." This Zhang family cultivator was much smarter than the Meng family cultivator, and with just one speech, he won over everyone's favor, and they couldn't help but secretly praise him.

  Seeing everyone's appearance, this Meng family cultivator knew that he was slightly inferior, and hummed coldly, which was considered a concession. As for the Zhang family cultivator, not only did he obtain this mid-grade spiritual artifact, but also gained the unanimous recognition of the crowd present.

  Zhang Jiaxiu was overjoyed, and with just a few pleasant words, he gained so much this time, and there were many potential benefits to boot. For example, everyone's goodwill towards his family increased, and if he went to recruit some of the scattered cultivators as guests of the Zhang family, many would definitely agree.

  "Now that the items we were supposed to auction off have been sold, all that's left are those things whose names we can't remember and whose uses we can't figure out. Everyone is free to bid on them." Blue Feather said after the auction was over.

  "This first item is something that can't be named, it feels very soft, but its purpose is unknown, so I'll put it up for auction to see if there's anyone who recognizes this thing." Blue Feather said, holding up an object with two bun-like protrusions and two suspender-like straps.

  Ye Tianfan felt an urge to vomit blood when he saw this thing, because it was actually a bra used by women on Earth, and it was made of plastic. Watching Lan Yu fiddle with the item, Ye Tianfan's thoughts in his heart became increasingly evil, and he couldn't help but think of some R-rated scenes from certain YY novels.

  This item was likely left behind by the original owner of Ye Tianfan's intelligent brain when his spaceship crashed. Just as Ye Tianfan was thinking about this, a young-looking monk bought it for 2,000 spirit stones, apparently wanting to study what use this thing had.

  In the following time, Ye Tianfan really gained a lot of experience. All sorts of things were brought to this auction platform, from unknown minerals to unknown poisonous plants to various beneficial herbs.

  There's nothing you can't think of, there's nothing you can't see, and there are many things that even Ye Tianfan, who has read so many books, can't name, which makes Ye Tianfan more determined to read even more books.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, the item up for auction is a mysterious bead. This gray bead gives people a very ordinary feeling, but don't easily define it as an ordinary bead. Our auction house has tested it, and just like the seller said, it's fireproof, waterproof, cannot be damaged by metal, cannot be absorbed by wood, and cannot be buried in earth. It seems to be beyond the five elements. If you don't believe me, please take a look." Blue Feather said matter-of-factly.

  After finishing speaking, several people came on stage to demonstrate, and it was just as they said. Afterwards, everyone became curious about the item.

  Ye Tianfan felt that this bead was what he needed the moment he laid eyes on it, and he was willing to pay any price for it. Although Ye Tianfan didn't know what use it had, he trusted his intuition and made up his mind to bid for it no matter what.

  "Now let's start the bidding. I think this item, if researched properly, will have great benefits." As an auctioneer, Lan Yu was always mindful of giving people a sweet deal.

  "After a brief silence, someone shouted: 'I'll offer 3,000 high-grade spirit stones. I want to see if I can uncover the secrets within.'"

  "Since this brother has said so, I'll add 3,500 spirit stones. If it's more than that, I won't add any." Another person spoke up.

  Ye Tianfan had an urge to slap him down immediately, but in order not to draw attention, he could only endure it.

  "1,500 spirit stones, is there a higher price than this? If not...". Blue Feather was clearly dissatisfied with the price and thought that White had wasted his efforts in explaining.

  "Slow down, I'll give you 4,000 spirit stones. If it's any higher, I'm not interested. After all, I don't have the slightest confidence in being able to unravel the secrets of this bead." Ye Tianfan hastily said.

  Everyone had a look of understanding after hearing Ye Tianfan's words, and they obviously felt the same way. Because of this reason, no one raised the price again, and Ye Tianfan bought it for only 4,000 spirit stones, which made him sigh with emotion.
